The front end of this late-fourth generation white Corvette suffered extensive damage in a Saturday afternoon crash in Ocean City, New Jersey.
Reports on ocnjdaily.com don’t really say if another vehicle was involved in the accident, but if we had to guess, we’d say the driver might have just lost control and smashed into one of the traffic signal poles at the intersection of Ninth Street and Bay Avenue, at the foot of the Route 52 Causeway bridge into Ocean City.

It was just about a month ago that CorvetteBlogger contributor Jeremy Welborn offered up this video on the proper jack and lift points for the 2020 Corvette after witnessing a video showing the C8 Corvette that was lifted in the wrong place. Because the weight distribution is now 40/60 with the engine behind the driver, you have to have the jack or lift mounted to the chassis locations properly or the unthinkable could happen as the lift is raised.

The odds are apparently in favor of the rental company when they hand over the key fob to one of their supercars to a stranger, or else they wouldn’t be in business very long.
Still, it had to hurt when Adventure Drivers founder Rob Ferretti heard the news that his Admiral Blue C7 Corvette Z06 convertible had been smashed up by a customer in a frontal collision over the Mother’s Day weekend.

A return to the race track after months of COVID-19 lockdown turned into a nightmarish experience for the owner of this blue C7 Corvette Z06 last week.
One photo from the scene shows the Z06 ablaze next to the grandstand in the parking lot at Toronto Motorsports Park on Wednesday, then another photo shows the charred remains of the car – or what’s left of it.

This red C3 Corvette went out for a drive this morning in Fort Walton Beach, Florida this morning when flames began appearing around the passenger side of the engine compartment. The Fire Department was called and it looks like they quickly put out the flames. The cause of the fire is unknown and hopefully, it was confined to just that one area.

Lots of Facebook comments on these pictures of an accident scene featuring a crashed 2020 Corvette, but unfortunately, no one seems to be fessing up to being the one to do it. I don’t blame them.
